After the top fixes

With the three fixes above (The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included; No structured data for the business; No booking or ordering link on the website), the score would be about 81.5%. That would be 168th of 873 in Baltimore, up from 771st.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included +23 points

    A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. How to fix it

  2. No structured data for the business +15 points

    Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

  3. No booking or ordering link on the website +15 points

    There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it

  4. No menu or price list found +7 points

    Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it

  5. Almost no text without JavaScript no points, but worth doing

    Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. How to fix it
